The wind shifted, so they are flying again.
I asked them if the ash was still bad wouldn't you use Prop Planes? They said they don't have any here. I said they could bring some down from the states and ferry us to Sao Paulo or Rio. But you know that would never happen.

I suspect the person who let you in on a gold level just didn’t know the rules, but that doesn’t mean the next person you encounter at the club entry will let you in. The last time I left BsAs I had to talk to two different people before I was allowed to check in at first/business class window (much shorter line) which is also a Platinum benefit even when flying coach.
BTW it’s fairly easy to get Platinum status if you take the AA challenge, you could possible get it on one trip to BsAs, Jaimito Cartero has posted about this in the past.
You can find info on Flyertalk and Flyerguide.

A previous post said a platinum membership was need to enter the American Airlines admirals club. I believe you only need to be Gold level member to enter. Only at EZE for some reason. I thought this might be helpful to some of the gold memebers unless they have changed policy. I doubt it.

Posts: 266Admirlas Club EZE
I was traveling quite a bit there over the past few years, when I was a Platinum member they of course allowed me to enter the club.
When I dropped down to a Gold member, when I was checking in at the platinum line for check in, they said at EZE gold members were also allowed to use the club without a fee.
The only time my flight was cancelled, they provided after a little effort on their part, 30 rooms at the Intercontinental for those present in the Admirals club.
I strolled over to the general population while we were waiting and they were making plans for people to share rooms. CHAOS.
In fact the last time they were occupied at the desk and I just walked in to the right and took a little rest. I would recommend staying near here if you are an AA customer.

Posts: 754There'll be longer lines in Ezeiza tonight! American and United have suspended their flights due to the volcanic dust!
At the moment Continental and Delta are still flying!

I like to refer to CAL as County Jail Airlines.

My last Continental flight was stocked with "Fags" as flight attendants.
I gave one of the CockSuckers, (quite litterely) a hundred dollar bill for a couple "Beefeaters" and no change.
Well as they were serving dinner I asked the CockSucker again for change, and heard him mutter under his breath, "He's cutting into our tips".
I finally got the money as we were landing at EZE, the MotherFucker.

But everyones missing the real point. These Clubs are a much better place to wait for a 10 hour flight than out in the boarding areas with the general public.
Finally, I've flown "em" all with the exception of United which isn't convient for my destination. Continental has the best service and aircraft to Houston, with the exception of Americans 777 service to Miami, but Miami's customs is "Fucked", their CockSuckers.
Delta has the best check in at EZE and leaves the earlest. Reason, American has 5 flights every night, Delta only 1. So you walk in and theres a "Zoo" of people at the American counter checking in over a 1000 people and the Delta counter is almost vacant checking in only about 250.

Posts: 267Back in the day that my company paid for it, I used to be an Admirals Club member. They are OK, but IMHO, I personally think that they are worth something on the order of $20 to $25 a visit. With my own money, I couldn't justify any more for them.
OTOH, I certainly wish that I had known about the AMEX lounge, as Free definitely is the right price for these types of amenities, and I have a Gold card.

Posts: 1064Centurium Club at Ezeiza
American Express card holders--green through black--have their own club at Ezeiza. It is next to gate 2 and 100% free. It is simular to the Admirals Club.
When I was American Airlines platinum, I had free access to the admirals club.
The two clubs are roughly simular-----I don't think there is free Beefeaters [sorry Exon].
Next time you have extra time at ezieza ask for the centurium club or just the american express club, by gate 2. Just flash an am exp card and you are in. It says Centurium on the front door. It is at the end of the large room by gate two and next to the luftanza club.

Posts: 45Admirals Club
If you make 3-4 trips per year, Admirals is worth it. $350 membership in promotion (I think it's more if you don't have the promo, but they do promos all the time) They have nice Admirals Clubs in almost every possible mongering destinations. Plus in many locations they have free showers. Not to mention free Wifi. Best decision I've made in a long time.
